I Legs Diamond sono una band hard rock fondata a San Francisco, California, nel 1975. Spesso descritti come la miglior band sconosciuta d'America, i Legs Diamond, nonostante il loro talento, non riuscirono mai a raggiungere forti vendite per diverse ragioni estranee al loro controllo. Il loro stile marcatamente melodico fece guadagnare al gruppo una schiera di ammiratori, tuttavia, la loro notorietà diminuì fortemente già a partire dalla metà degli anni 1980. rdf:langString
Legs Diamond is an American rock band. They formed in Los Angeles, California, United States, starting with Michael "Diamond" Gargano (bass) and Jeff Poole (drums), and were named for a 1920s gangster of the same name. The group released their self-titled debut album for Mercury Records in 1977. The original band broke up in 1980 after three popular albums, but reformed in 1984 after their original albums had begun to acquire a cult following. In 2019, Legs Diamond acquired a new lead singer, Keith England, and are currently working on a new album and eventually touring again. rdf:langString

rdf:langString Legs Diamond is an American rock band. They formed in Los Angeles, California, United States, starting with Michael "Diamond" Gargano (bass) and Jeff Poole (drums), and were named for a 1920s gangster of the same name. The group released their self-titled debut album for Mercury Records in 1977. The original band broke up in 1980 after three popular albums, but reformed in 1984 after their original albums had begun to acquire a cult following. The new lineup released several more albums and continued to perform throughout the 1990s and 2000s. In 2005, original frontman Rick Sanford was replaced by ex-Montrose and Wild Horses vocalist John Levesque, and the band released the album, Diamonds Are Forever, in 2006. Original members include Roger Romeo (guitar), Michael Prince (keyboards/rhythm guitar), and Jeff Poole (percussion). The band still does the occasional gig in the Los Angeles area and at least once a year in San Antonio, Texas where they are still popular, the result of being a favorite of influential disc jockey Joe "the Godfather" Anthony (1940–1992). Keyboardist Michael Prince is active in studio recording, in Los Angeles, working with some better known R+B and pop acts, including Beyoncé, Chris Brown, Usher, and Los Lobos. On March 30, 2018, the band's first three studio albums, Legs Diamond, A Diamond Is A Hard Rock, and Fire Power, were re-issued by British label Rock Candy Records, each containing a plethora of bonus tracks. In 2019, Legs Diamond acquired a new lead singer, Keith England, and are currently working on a new album and eventually touring again.
